[Spiritforlife]

hello guys, I just insttaled a set of style 5s on my 318I ,that I bought 3 weeks ago. Some how I'm having some major tire rubbing on the fenders, to the extent that I can smell rubber burning when I'm on the high way. I'm on new oem shocks with h&r sports,215/45/17 Kumho solus I really need some help from any of you guys, thanks so much?:help

I'm assuming your offset is for a 5 series. You said major rubbing on your fenders...which means one thing... ROLL YOUR FENDERS!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Spiritforlife]

yea I know I need the fenders rolled definitely, but it rubbs so much that, I question If that's going to help! Also, I don't see that much of a lip on the front fenders!, should I pull them out a bit?:stickoutt

[whitebeast]

Just send em to me, ill put em to good use!

i had to do alot of fender rolling to get mine to fit. i roll on 235/40 in the rear because the 215/40 is way to small. im on koni/h&r race.

if your lowered at all you have to roll em.

Pics of 235/40 rear? I'm going for 235/40 on my Azevs

just put some 205 40 17s or keep the 215 and roll, you dont have to roll to much thought, i have style 5s on mine and i have 205/40/17 front and 215/40/17 rear. and no rubbing

How low are you? I thought most people rolled 215's on a style 5

Start with rolling the fenders and pull them out a bit if you want

pics would help a lot

did you get your car aligned? you'll probably have to increase rear negative camber.

I haven't mention that I'm bottoming out every pot hole I hit, live and new jersey so I can't help it. This morning I had to take them off, because the tires where getting cut literaly! Right now rolling on stock rims. Other thing I just notice is that I don' really now which springs do I have, because Iorder h&r sports from tire rack, but some how I see that the sports are color blue, and mine are red. Did they sent me the race ones by mistake

I ran 225/40 all around about 3 years ago on Style 5's with stock suspension but with almost new shocks fenders not rolled and I did not have any issues at all.

This was on my E36 M3.

215\40 here and on stock suspension, no problems. Maybe because you went with 45 instead of 40.

PICS? never seen 235s on style 5s

[HTOWN///M]

ya that 45 will kill you should have done 40's. Just roll the shit out of your fenders and ull be fine...

[Spiritforlife]

I've been doing a lot of reading and thank you guys. What I'm going to do is buy me a set of koni sports and then, roll the shit out of the fender and do some pulling. What I'm debating is if I should take it to a body shop to do the rolling and pulling or should I do it myself? Have you guys have done it before?

how do you manage to roll and pull the fenders without damaging it?

wait, they're on a 5 series?? I thought it was on an E36...That changes everything. 235s on a 5 series isn't the same as 235s on a 3 series.
